Saudade

Cover my ears or the choir will find me.
The echoes will force their way inside.
I know the sirens are calling me again.
I'm not listening but there's no place to hide.

Despite the distance that separates us
The ringing in my ears will make its way in.
I can't build a wall thick enough
To keep that song from bleeding through.
I can't keep my skin thick enough
To keep myself from giving into you.

I never asked her to stay.
Now she is several worlds away.
I've made a terrible mistake.
Saudade. Saudade! Saudade.
I never asked her to stay.
Now she is several worlds away.
Now it's too late, and I'm to blame.
Saudade. Saudade! Saudade.

Help me find something more comfortable to be abducted in.
Because I can't find relief.
I had hope the years would finally dissipate this fog
I've given up on that belief.

I never asked her to stay.
Now she is several worlds away.
I've made a terrible mistake.
Saudade. Saudade! Saudade.
I never asked her to stay.
Now she is several worlds away.
Now it's too late, and I'm to blame.
Saudade. Saudade! Saudade.
